A Savage measurement question

[Medic101]

I want to get a Savage 110 tactical and replace the stock so what I need to know is the distance between the floorplate mounting screws on the 110 tactical.

What cartridge will it shoot, and is it a brand new Savage 110?
If it is a short action cartridge like .308 Win or 6.5 Creed the spacing will be 4.40" in current production rifles, all savage long actions .30-06 or .300 Win since the beginning have been 5.062" for the action screws.

All Long Actions = 5.062" (1958 to present, staggered and center-feed magazines)
1st. Gen Short Actions = 4.522" (1959 to 1987, staggered feed magazine)
2nd Gen Short Actions = 4.275" (1998 to 2007, staggered feed magazine)
3rd Gen Short Actions = 4.400" (2005 and up, center-feed magazine, not in photo)
3rd Gen Palma/Dual-Port = 3.440" (2009 and up, single-shot only)
Axis/Edge = 4.800" (2008-present; spacing same for long or short action cartridges)]

Thanks for sharing that. I knew Savage had made many changes over the years which made it confusing. Never seen all the information in one place before.

It will be new in .308

If it's in 308, i would look for a Model 10 short action, rather than a 110 long action.
You don't need the extra 1/2 inch of length.

Savage puts both long and short actions under the 110 model name now.

Yes, they do. As if their system isn't already confusing enough.
